FIN_AA_PARALLEL_VAL: Changeover and New Customizing (New)

Use

As of SAP enhancement package 7 for SAP ERP 6.0 SP 02 (EA-FIN 617 SP02), business function FI-AA, Parallel Valuation (FIN_AA_PARALLEL_VAL), you can change over from classic to new Asset Accounting. The changeover involves certain preparatory steps, and therefore new Customizing settings.

The steps required for the changeover are set out below in summary form.

Application Customizing for new Asset Accounting can mainly be differentiated from classic Asset Accounting in the following areas:

  • Settings for depreciation areas
  • Settings for posted transactions using integration
  • Settings for transaction types

Activation of the business function, of the Customizing switch and also settings in Customizing

To be able to use new Asset Accounting, you have to follow the steps below:

You can find more details in the Implementation Guide under Financial Accounting (New) -> New Asset Accounting: Preparation and Activation -> Prepare New Asset Accounting.

  1. Check the prerequisites for business function FIN_AA_PARALLEL_VAL (see the main release note for business function FIN_AA_PARALLEL_VAL: FI-AA, Parallel Valuation
  2. Activate the business function for new Asset Accounting (FIN_AA_PARALLEL_VAL).
When you activate the business function, the system shows the new IMG structure Asset Accounting (New) in the SAP Reference IMG under Financial Accounting (New). You use the new IMG structure Asset Accounting (New) to set up and prepare the Customizing for new Asset Accounting in the client.
  1. Start Customizing for new Asset Accounting (Customizing activity Prepare New Asset Accounting)
  2. Make the Customizing settings (application Customizing) for new Asset Accounting
  3. Execute Customizing activity Check Prerequisites for Activating Asset Accounting (New)
  4. Activate the Customizing switch (Customizing activity Activate New Asset Accounting)
  5. In the production system:
    1. Lock the production system against postings and
    2. Execute Customizing activity Check Prerequisites for Activating Asset Accounting (New)
  6. Import the new Customizing settings into your production system.
  7. Check in the production system whether the transport successfully imported the activated Customizing switch
  8. Unlock the production system for postings

Notes:

The activation of business function FIN_AA_PARALLEL_VAL applies for your entire system. However, you prepare and activate the functions for new Asset Accounting for each client separately. As a result, it is possible for you to use new Asset Accounting for the ledger approach in one client, while you can use classic Asset Accounting for the account approach in another client.

For 4) Make the Customizing settings for new Asset Accounting

You make the Customizing settings for new Asset Accounting in Customizing under Financial Accounting (New) -> Asset Accounting (New). The settings apply in the relevant mandate.

If you have already been using classic Asset Accounting, then you only have to make settings for the new and changed functions. These include:

a),,Check and adapt as necessary settings under Define Depreciation Area (mandatory)

b),,Define depreciation area for quantity update (if necessary)

c),,Specify transfer of APC values (mandatory)

d),,Specify transfer of depreciation terms (mandatory)

e),,Specify the use of "parallel currencies" (if necessary)

f),,Define Technical Clearing Account for Acquisitions (mandatory, if posted using integration)

g),,Specify alternative document type for ledger-group-specific documents (if posted using integration and document splitting is active)

h),,Check transaction types (mandatory)

i),,Create Clearing Accounts for Non-Integrated Asset Acquisition

j),,Check, and if necessary adapt, revenue distribution for asset acquisition (by net book value or APC)

k),,Retirement posting with net book value: Restriction to specific depreciation areas (mandatory, if you are using this posting logic)

For details about these activities, see Customizing (IMG) for Asset Accounting (New) under New Asset Accounting: Preparation and Activation -> Prepare Asset Accounting (New).

For 4a) Define depreciation areas

Assign a ledger group to each depreciation area, even to depreciation areas that do not post to the general ledger. For each set of depreciation areas to which the same ledger group is assigned (meaning for each accounting principle), only one depreciation area is allowed to manage acquisition and production costs (APC) and have the indicator Area Posts in Realtime at the same time.

The asset values are updated at the full value in accordance with the relevant accounting principle. For each accounting principle, this results in a complete and independent view of the asset values with the respective valuation. An additional derived depreciation area for each accounting principle (and currency and valuation), meaning a delta area, is no longer required for a parallel valuation of asset balances.
